Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), the country's largest power equipment manufacturer, has secured an order worth Rs 160 crore from an UAE-based International Energy Resources, for supply of two gas turbine generating units.

The company has received a contract for supply of two gas turbine generating units of 42 MW each. The two units are planned to be used in different locations for the Mobile Power Plants.

This is the company's second contract from the UAE and comes close on the heels of a similar order for two gas turbine generating units, each with a 42MW capacity, received from Al Ghail Power, a company wholly owned by the Ras Al Khaimah Investment Authority.

BHEL has so far set up 14 power projects in the Middle East apart from sub-stations and supply of equipment for the power and oil and gas sectors.
